Hi! I work at Plaid wanted to share that the Consumer Financial Production Bureau addressed the fact that a financial institution cannot waive liability responsibilities in a recent Compliance Aid. FAQ 4 says that instititutions cannot rely on an agreement with the consumer that waives the liability protections under Regulation E if a consumer has shared their account information with a third party because those are protections provided under the Electronic Funds Transfer Act.

That's for the USA. This news is about Canada.


But still. Terrible security model, right?
